Greetings,
As a nonprofit professional, how often do you get calls from
jobseekers? Or from nonprofit organizations looking for
top-notch staff members?
Of course you want to do
anything you can to help, but you are busy with your own
work. And you don't want to set up shop as a staffing
service.
Now you can help
yourself and your caller. Direct them to
NonprofitOyster.com where jobseekers can create and
display an anonymous profile for no cost. It's the largest
and most comprehensive bank of nonprofit professionals
anywhere.
Nonprofit employers can
post their positions and look through a bank of more than
2,000 candidates, finding only those that meet their
criteria. It's an excellent recruiting tool.
So the next time you get
one of those calls, send them to
NonprofitOyster.com, the only job board Matching Talent
with Missions. You can even use our sample script below.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Worters

Dear Jane,
Thanks for calling me about your XXXX position. If I think
of someone who would fit your needs I'll be sure and call.
In the
meantime, you might want to check out a tool I've recently
found that I think will enhance your search.
NonprofitOyster.com has a comprehensive bank of
candidates, not all of them active jobseekers, who have
created an anonymous profile. Employers can search on
narrow criteria in the bank of candidates, so they find only
the candidates who are qualified for their opening. It's
the largest bank of profiles for nonprofit professionals
anywhere (resume searches are included in all subscription
packages available to employers).
NonprofitOyster.com is also a
great place for employers to post positions for targeted
outreach to the best candidates.
They'll
be given the option to post a single position, sign up for a
job listing/resume search subscription, or sign up for a
subscription to search resumes - all at surprisingly
affordable rates!
Best of luck in your search!
Sincerely,
Know
anyone who would be an exceptional candidate
for these four exciting position openings?
